What I’ll say in regards to the newest batch of high-profile post-Olympics releases is that it’s in all probability not the most effective signal if I needed to look most of them up to verify they weren’t simply throwaway pre-release tracks.
======
LISA (Feat. Rosalia) – “NEW WOMAN”
I truly suppose this could be LISA’s finest solo effort for essentially the most half. Sparse at instances, however the manufacturing is nice and Lisa delivers her traces with the required chew to compensate for the truth that it’s a bit repetitive and ends abruptly. Rosalia is the large get right here as function, and … uh, it jogs my memory of these outdated Okay-pop options the place they’re simply shoehorn within the big-name visitor for the sake of it although it doesn’t match the tune in any respect. Nothing towards Rosalia in any respect, however it’s simply so misplaced and Okay-pop (particularly LISA) is past these things by now.

ARrC – “S&S”
Mystic Story’s new boy group, apparently. I’ve heard sufficient of those songs the place you begin reflecting like, “Am I out of contact? No, it’s the children which might be incorrect.” Besides it’s not a meme and also you’re truly right.
——
Taemin (SHINee) – “Horny In The Air”
With the quantity of individuals copying his sound, I assume he wished to strive one thing totally different. However I gotta admit, I used to be ready for many of the tune for one thing to occur.
——
DRIPPIN – “Weekend”
A cute throwaway tune that feels prefer it was rushed out for some rom-com OST greater than being a single.
——
SF9 – “Don’t Fear Be Pleased”
Protected and nice tune that a minimum of must be sufficient for followers to take pleasure in, although the bridge kinda excludes it from any vibes playlist for me.
——
NMIXX – “See That?”
Properly, I used to be incorrect about this:
Should not be boring a minimum of. pic.twitter.com/zIPQjwod42

Critically although, I’ve turn into one thing of an NMIXX fan of late due to their output, however this wasn’t even like an attention-grabbing mixx-up or no matter.

Gonna be sincere, in gentle of every little thing else in right here, LISA’s tune seems to be much more interesting.
